Statistics from information services for February 2000: Important Note! The major changes to the upper-level pages on www.uky.edu in October 1998 make it difficult to relate this month's total transactions to earlier figures. The initial page and many of the upper-level pages now make many references for images and scripts, greatly inflating the total number of transactions, but indicative of the increased load created. The figures in the WWW Hit Parade below are largely unaffected by this. World-Wide Web Servers (www.uky.edu and ukcc.uky.edu): 44,880,718 total transactions, +10% 26,520 from CMS users (ukcc.uky.edu), +3% 70,410 from UK SLIP/PPP users, -30% 26,227,321 from UK campus network workstations, +10% 13,659 from local indexing 18,542,808 from the Internet, +19% Qi/Ph Directory (ukcc.uky.edu): 287,229 total transactions, +2% 201,262 from CMS servers & users (ukcc.uky.edu), +2% 451 from UK SLIP/PPP users, +11% 83,406 from UK campus network workstations, +5% 2,110 from the Internet, -20% (most Internet access is through the servers at ukcc.uky.edu) Gopher Server (gopher.uky.edu): 34,175 total transactions, -10% 20,730 from CMS users (ukcc.uky.edu), -4% 6 from UK SLIP/PPP users, -86% 2,250 UK campus network workstations, -17% 11,189 from the Internet, -20% View (ukcc.uky.edu): 77 total transactions, -75% The servers are used 24 hours each day from all over the world, but most use is from 8:00 am until 8:00 pm, with a concentration from 1:00 pm until 5:00 pm Eastern Time. The WWW Hit Parade These were the most popular pages on the main Web servers (www.uky.edu and ukcc.uky.edu). Web client access to the Gopher server is counted below with the other Gopher counts. The count for the Computer Labs is exaggerated because the lab computers are configured to use that page as home. Daily Rank Category Total Non-UK Mean 1. Scripts 513,330 386,492 17,111 2.

Information recorded includes the version of the browser used and the operating system under which it was running. Some servers are not recording the information and for various reasons some transactions will not have browser information available. The percentages below are the portion of the transactions for which browser information was available. Note that the information recorded is provided by the browsers and in some cases may not be correct. iCab 4,547 0% BeOS 65 0% AOL 831,163 2% FreeBSD 2,545 0% Charlotte 2,234 0% Linux 90,481 0% Lynx 1,488 0% Macintosh 2,177,070 5% MSIE_1 4,338 0% OS/2 8,020 0% MSIE_2 12,207 0% PalmOS 61 0% MSIE_3 454,597 1% Unix 157,543 0% MSIE_4 5,663,532 13% VM/CMS 16,503 0% MSIE_5 10,078,517 23% WebTV 44,977 0% Netscape_1 4,465 0% Windows 131,925 0% Netscape_2 55,062 0% Windows_CE 436 0% Netscape_3 1,536,821 3% Windows_NT 14,375,532 33% Netscape_4 24,792,786 56% Windows_3.1 32,629 0% Netscape_5 315 0% Windows_95 15,842,963 36% Opera 8,553 0% Windows_98 10,425,520 24% WebTV 44,977 0% Other 780,782 2% Other 591,450 1% No_Data 793,666 No_Data 793,666 Total 44,880,718 Total 44,880,718 The Gopher Hit Parade Gopher and View services have been mostly phased out, but some items are still delivered to web browsers through Gopher servers. The figures are total transactions with a daily average. Est. Avg. Gopher View Total Daily 1. Grants 568 1 569 18.7 2. Classes&Registrar 550 1 551 18.1 3. Netnews 516 1 517 17.0 4. HRS 315 1 316 10.4 5. Census 308 1 309 10.1 Notes The services covered here are the World-Wide Web, Gopher, Qi/Ph Directory, and CMS View. CMS View is available only to local CMS users (the anonymous View service uses the CMS Web browser). The other services are available to workstations with campus ethernet access or terminals on multi-user systems with appropriate software. Most of these services are available world-wide over the Internet, although some data is restricted to local users. Web client software (like Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer) can use all of these services, Gopher clients can use all but the Web services, and Ph and Eudora clients can use Qi/Ph services. (We distribute versions of most of these for Macintosh, Windows, and some Unix platforms.) Tracking Web clients is the most complex because of the number of protocols they support. A document on a Web server can refer the client to another Web document, a Gopher item, or Qi/Ph search without the client user's awareness. The transaction counts are counts of Gopher and View menu picks - when someone picks an item from a View or Gopher menu that counts as one transaction. A transaction could lead to a document, a search, or another menu. Web transactions are for documents and searches. What the Web user sees as a single page might involve multiple server transactions. Most Web requests from www.uky.edu are for building the index used by our search service. Qi/Ph transactions are searches and requests for additional information. The primary Web server is running on an IBM PC Server 704 (www.uky.edu) using the Apache server under FreeBSD. The primary campus Gopher and Qi/Ph servers are running on an IBM 9672 (gopher.uky.edu and ukcc.uky.edu) under VM/ESA. Additional Web service is provided by the IBM 9672 VM/ESA system (ukcc.uky.edu) and others. There are numerous other specialized servers running on these and other machines which are not included here.
